Incremental learning models are required to learn new classes sequentially without catastrophic forgetting, while operating under parameter and memory constraints. In the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era, although quantum neural networks offer advantages in feature mapping, hardware limitations restrict circuit width. Furthermore, traditional quantum classifiers are constrained by the number of orthogonal basis states, limiting their capacity to accommodate a continually growing number of categories. Thus, we introduce a novel quantum incremental learning framework based on trainable mixed-state prototypes. Its original design incorporates new classes by adding class prototypes rather than increasing the circuit width of the shared quantum backbone. The use of mixed-state prototypes is another key contribution, since they have representation capabilities to represent information than a single pure-state prototype. And the decomposable mixed-state calculation provides lower production costs and a convenient Hilbert-Schmidt (HS) distance metric for classification. Simulation results show that our model achieves high-dimensional feature concentration using a minimal number of qubits, while demonstrating lower computational complexity and robust representation in incremental learning tasks compared with classical baselines.

Vision-language-action models (VLAs), which leverage the cognition of multimodal information to infer physical-world actions, provide a generalized solution for embodied AI applications. Conventional VLAs usually concentrate on current digital cognition. While some efforts are made to enhance VLAs'reasoning capabilities by capturing temporal information, encoding the long-context history causes an efficiency-decreasing issue. To reconcile the conflict between capturing temporal information and maintaining inference efficiency in VLAs, this paper introduces FibVLA, an efficient framework featuring temporal perception of long-context history. Specifically, we leverage logarithmic hindsight sampling to both proprioceptive states and visual frames to capture long-term temporal dependencies with minimal redundancy. For the action expert, we introduce the flow matching to produce action distributions, and the Fibonacci recurrent inference strategy to generate long-range planning steps based on real-time closed-loop feedback. Experiments demonstrate that FibVLA significantly improves action smoothness and success rates without retraining large-scale visual encoders. Efficiency analysis demonstrates superior real-time responsiveness compared to video-based baselines in real-world evaluations.
